I had a similar problem but it wasn't for a servlet.
If this is the type 4 driver supplied by Oracle, it seems to only handle 50
uses per connection and then the connection blows up!
A use(age) is one transaction or query. Are you creating a new connection
per request or are you reusing the connection between service calls?
If your using a connection pool or wrinting one yourself, I suggest you set
the usages per connection to 50 for this particular driver so that after 50
it will recycle the connection. Try using another Oracle driver supplied
by a different vendor, this worked for me. I recomend type 2 or 3 drivers.
Good luck.
